DCS World 1.5 and 2 Discussion

Who not have the buggy DCS world 2 on the open beta testing, and the current version on the release version of the game? im pretty sure most people that would be using the open beta client understands that there will be lots of crashes and bugs.

You'd be surprised at how many dont understand. Regardless, ED wants to get it to a certain quality level before it goes public.

well, ok... I do understand that they would want to get it stable before it goes public.

Are there many bugs and instabilities left to fix, sith?

Well we don't have it yet, so I am sure there are things they are still working on for sure :) What those are and details and such I do not know.

Before we can do so though, there are still several items that need to be addressed. These will also include: completing the new multiplayer interface, performance optimization, various unified .exe issues, remaining crashes, and some night lighting issues

How about a closed beta for users registered before an arbitrary date. Say, I dunno, just off the top of my head, users registered before august 2006? :music_whistling::smartass:

Sorry, the cut off would be June 2006 :P

will there be any new countries to be added (e.g. Asian countries)?

I am sure as new maps are added, more countries will be added.

So just to clarify, some areas of the actual Nevada Test and Training Range will be lower resolution (not complaining just going off of the updated image in post 1). The yellow outline is outside of the Med/High area Wags identified.

 

[NineLine]

What his map shows is what we are getting yes.

[Snoopy]

What's your point?

 

So people wouldn't do the normal complaining that happens around here that parts of the actual ranges aren't high/med res.

in the youtube video Los Vegas looks amazing - low rez stuff on the edges doesn't bother me at all, i mean how much resolution do we need for salt flats and sand?

Did I complain, no I clarified because a few MP organizations plan to use all the NTTR ranges and populate them correctly (range circles, targets, etc). I was simply informing people what portions of the actual range wouldn't be high/med textures. I'm not going to be flying an A-10 over Las Vegas very often.

I am more interested in the explosion effects. Nothing has been shown for this yet. Wondering if it is just going to be the same?

 

They are working on all effects as far as I know. Its stated in the first post that we will get improved effects as well, we have seen some improvements in videos released by ED already.

not sure what you mean, i was saying my opinion towards the people who you said would complain over low res :(

I think Snoopy is referring to the limited value of a high-res Las Vegas for combat training exercises.

Yes, Las Vegas will be much better for real combat missions ;)

 

As for the areas outside the red box, there is a possibility there will be medium detail areas there as well... but we dont know all the details yet... no pun intended.

Im looking for explosion effects, something we haven't seen yet.

 

There are a lot of effects in the game, some may take more time than others, I am sure when they have something new to show us on those they will.

You are a fighter pilot, it doesnt matter to you as everything is blurry anyways, but step in helicopter pilot shoes and you are soon in low level admiring those textures. Or get to CA module and start driving around and you really are soon in experience that you are at billiard board.

 

That is my negativity for current map as well as everything is almost flat if not going to mountains and then it is again the same.

 

We need more small height alterations and sharper textures for low level.

[SkateZilla]

Should prolly wait for it.to be released before assuming what it'll look like.

there are Huey flight videos over NTTR as well

FYI, Wags let me know that the areas highlighted by Snoopy are indeed Medium detail.

Sweet, thanks Sith!

Just those areas, or is the original square area larger?
